Dax Shepard has been solidly in the headlines this past week, balancing family candor, red carpet charm, and a steady dose of viral attention. The biggest story making waves is his parenting philosophy: Dax revealed on his Armchair Expert podcast that he and Kristen Bell allow their daughters, Lincoln and Delta, to swear in the house—but only when it’s appropriate and not in public. He explained his view that “these are noises that come out of your mouth and you assign what they mean to you,” sparking debates about modern parenting. This confession quickly spread across outlets including AOL and Parade, with Entertainment Tonight even joking about how his family’s swear jar “might not be too full.”
Hand-in-hand with the parenting chatter, Dax and Kristen were a highlight at the 2025 Golden Globes, walking the red carpet as a united front in signature playful style. Kristen dazzled in rose gold while Dax kept things cheeky with black and white checkered Vans, bringing a dose of casual to the black-tie affair. They were there celebrating Kristen’s nomination for the buzzy Netflix hit Nobody Wants This—a repeat of their power couple status at Hollywood events since their 2013 baby-bump debut.
Then came an extra splash of PDA at the recent Time100 Gala in New York, where the couple amped up the cuteness for photographers, drawing attention from AOL and social media gawkers alike. Dax was also fully in supportive-husband mode when Kristen received her recent Emmy nomination, posting a cheeky tribute on Instagram featuring a photo of Kristen in the nude. This bold gesture, according to AOL, was classic Dax: a little irreverent, but always adoring.
Social media has been abuzz, with Entertainment Tonight and E! News sharing memes, clips, and light-hearted debates about his hand-in-Vans red carpet ensembles and relaxed dad vibes. One upcoming date that fans are already buzzing about: Dax is set to appear at the New Yorker Festival on October 26th—a public appearance likely to generate even more headlines.
Finally, Dax took a moment to officially address and refute years-long rumors about him and Kristen being swingers, insisting publicly there’s no truth to that persistent Hollywood gossip, as covered by TV Shows Ace via IMDb News. Through all these developments, Dax Shepard remains candid, refreshingly approachable, and always headline-worthy.
